Oakaw, Ealinois, Dec. 31 Mistur Editur: Thar hes been much talk betwixt our gals Huldah and Azubah, pence they got home frum the High Skule at Terry Hut, that me and thar mother hev got oneasy about it. Et surprizin what them gals knows. They know more now th.'in mc and Coziar ev er know'd in our whole lives, both put together. Sometimes when they git un der full headway with thsr talk, they git thar mother so excited that she don 'pear to hev enny 6ense at all. I kev seed her at sich times treadin the gearin and throwin the shettle so last that you would think the 6team keers of the rale rode wua comin. Ef I am out 'round the bosses in the stable, or choppin wood, or am anvwhar about in hearin distcnce, and hearn'that loom a-goin that way, then I know them gals is at it, and that thar tellen about the sights and sounds they hev seed and hearn at terry Hut. The fact is, Mistur Editur, ef halt what them gals tells about is true, my mind made up, and my idee on the scriptur line of John's vishun tit Patmus i6 cor reck—that "the angull which cum down from Heavun and laid holt of the Drag un, the old surpent, which is the Devull hisself, and Satun, aud bound him thousand year," hes either got tired hold in him. or elsfc that he hes bin shuck off someway. 1 raally do beleeve he f/ee it lookt/mightily that way to me, Mis tur Editur and I don't see enny thing in scriptur which seems to'teech that he will prohiblv ever be cuirelied agin I'm aieerd "he's loose now, and that he's rangin along the big Wabash river, and about Tery- Hut, at this verry time, and that he's got a whole pack ot other devulls cagin round with him. Ef devulls, like most other wild animules is greegarieen in thar instinks, et stands to reason thev should go right strate to Terry-Hut when they hev a chance. Them God fursakun critturs of purdition, I s'pose is like the deer that roams the forest, thar bound to hev a lick to go to when they git dry, and the only raal devull's own lick, that I now know of, or can hearn of, in all the rounds of my gospull ministry, is at Terry-Hut. 1 think some of the peeple thar told me, they hed to dig down several thousand feet to git it, but they got it, for it is the opinion of all the Eldurs of Pizgay, that them waters hes been biled down over the su'.furious fires of the raal old testament hellthey taste like it, and they smell like it, es sure es thar is a roof in the mouth, and an oilfactory in the nose, of every jew and Gentile that hes ever tasted 'em.

Well that's the way. Mistur Editur. everything hes seemed on careful observashun. Huldah and Azubah hed told us somenny strange thmgs about you ail over thar, that me and thar mother sed to ourselves, •'We'll jist go over and see the sights the gals hes fcin teliin about, and then we'll know fur certain, how the whole bizness is, frum ascriptrull stand pint." When we got thar, and hed started ouf to look around, the fust thing we -*•—$ was a meetin house of the Bapursuasion. We stood 'round oor a minuite, or two, es ,r

But when she Is done, we went in and sot down in congregation, and did'nt tell nobody II wus an ordained ministur of the ipull. We soon seed that the whole cern wus of the New-Light pursuap, and that the religion of them peeple 5s neethur orthydox or evangelicull.

mean the just and good, or the holy Psalm ust would hey sed it that way. "Shell be turned!" Now, right here, lets hold on, and es us, preechers say sometimes, "parse this gospul a minute." Every educated theologeen know» that "shell" means exactly the same thing es must. So hev thetin mfnd and we'll pais on. Now look out, and take care of what cums next. "Be tu-n-ed"—Ye see them wurd6 is too plain to argee about at all. "Be turned"—that is Ditched, moved in a circle, round and round, heels ®ver head, and head over heels, turn about. Everybody kin see at wumt, thar is no foolin about that,—and that it will be a lively tussle when it cums, —and means bizness. "Intohell!" "Into" that's a pizen wurd es it stands in the sentence before hell. Enny well larnt skulemaster will tell you, that its what is called a prepusition. That it follows verbs denotin motion, and we hev jist seed that "turned" is ere of them kind.

Into" then means passin from the outside of a thing to its inner parts—so that when a man gits

,into

hell," or to make

it still more forcible, hes been "turned into hell," he's thar fur certain. Ef I understan the bearin of language, that text settles it, and thar's no room left fur talkin about it. Not only every pertickler sinner, but whole nashuns of 'em at wunst, will be sure to- catch it, ef they pursist in thar unregenrate devultrv, and like a fool mule that never hed enny sense nohow, keep on pullen back agin damnation fur all that is raally deservin of it, and baptism by immersion, the only true salvation that hes ever yit bin appinted fur mankind. Your Terry Hut Baptists may vainly think they see a New Light on the walls of Zion, but es fur me and mv house, and my peeple we intend to live and die in the old tashun baptizmal faith, includin the whole ironside and copper-bottum brimstone hell, and itemized damnation, of the primitive church of Israal. Nothin short oi them idses and doctrins, whether by confession, or letter, will pass muster with the Eldurs of the Pizgay Associa tion, which is chiefly the scope of mv pastorial charge.

When meetin broke, me and Coziar went to a tavern to stay all night, and git sum b:eckfust, before startin out the next mornin. Thar wus a peert talkin man settin round thar, who sed he "owned the whole tavern and 6treet keers hbself," and "that him, and sum other fellers in town, hed a man from Canaday, by the name of Heeveys, that they was running a leetle fur a spaculashun, and that ef me and Goziar hed a mind to, he would hev us bid to his house to a 'High-Tee.' I told the landlord "that I thought we would like to go, but would fust ax Coziar about it, as she was verry purtickler." When I fust told my spouse about it, she got powerful skeerd, and for a good spell, 'pcard raal onrashnull. I hed never seed Coziar got clean down, all at wunst, es she wus on that occashun. She hed an idee that Canaday wus whar the Cannibulls cum frum, and that a "High-Tee" wus only an a furrcn name fur a roast infunt. Et wus enough to make a man wish, like the Apostull Paul, he hed never married, to see that woman cage round the room. She hoi lcred aud shuck all over, and slung her shoes off, and run and got clean under the bed. But me and the landlord coaxed heroutarter while, and soothed her down like, and soon brung her to her senses. She wus powerful distracted though. She told us that "when she wus a child, she hed read in the "Wes tern Skule Reader," about the Canabull country, and that she hed often dreamed Bhe would some day be carried off thar and eat up." But the landlord told Coziar that "Captain Heeveys wus'nt a Canabull," that "he hed never eat up en nv human bein at all, though" seys hekind alaughin a leettle—"he may have chawd up one or two large houses, a bank or so, a few skeetin rinks and sum raleroads, but he hed never hearn tell of his settin his tooth in a single pound of human flesh, male er female." Coiiar 'peard to feel easier after the landlord told her that, "but," she sed, "that HighTee' bizness, don,t sound natrull to me, and what I don't know nuthin about, I'm liable to beafeerdof." Well," seys the landlord, "I don't know nuther what it is, though I've kept store and grocery, and tavurn all my life, but my idee is," its somethin to eat, and "es the proof of the pudin"—es the old 6ayiti "is in chawin the bag," I'de go and

an(j

and in short agin

in the XVII verse, of the

IX Psalm, that "the wicked shell be turned into hell, and all the nashuns that forgitGod." Thats what he hes sed, and th«n is plain wurds. I 'spose they say what they mean, and mean what they say. Take them wurds then, and turn 'em over a leetle. "The wicked," what does that mean? Why it means, the evull in principull and practice, the peeple that lives in sin. It don't

"c ». ni ne make them deservmc of your farm, but i.e'» honest, and won't keep it, and he only does them things fur a joke, like they do in Canaday. He hes often told me that, and I know he means it."

So sure enough, tbe landlord told Capt. Heevey's about our bein in town, and pretty soon, down cum three white men and seven niggers, allwalkin in a straight row, dressed up like the fellows that stays in the circus ring, to hold the whoops fur the gal that's ridin the hoss, to jump through and the head man, said he "hed brought us a "billy-dux," to Capt Heeveys "High-Tee." They all tuck off thar hats, when the man sed that, and then a brass band cum along and

preecher tuck squar ground agin struck up, and the three white men and law and the Prottets, justificashun ggven niggers, wheeled in behind em, Mosus and Paul,

marched back home agin. Coziar

she

laughed and I laughed, es we hed

"J never seed anything like it on the Oakaw. But the landlord told us, "that wus the way thev done in Canaday, and that

Capt. Heeveys, wus goin to git the Terry Hut peeple up to them idees, and that he hed em nov all pretty nigh crazy."

Me and Coziar did'nt think of goin down before candk light, but the land£ lord told us, ef we got thar one minute before, or one minute arter, "four o'clock," thar would be sum soldiers thar that would shoot us down es we cum." Me and Coziar wus thar on time, but we seed three fine drest gala that hed bin killed, lyin thar on the ground. They hed got thar too soon. When we all got in, the men folks wus all tuck into a big room up stars, whar we had to take off our shoes and socks, and then put on our shoes, and take off our coats and shirts, and then put on our coats agm, so that, when ,we wus dressed fur the "High Tee,w we was jist as destitute of socks and shirts, es we wus when we wus born. I could'nt see

the feetnales wus, and we found 'em a standin on thar heado. Coziar she he run off, and hid, fur 6he hes hed th "pole evull", fur thirty year, and sh couldn't hev bore all the heft her body on her head a minute, *'Hijrl Tee," or no "High-Tee." Et wus strange idee, to have them feemalos a sot up that way, but the men tuck hole and soon got 'em all forked eend dow agin, and things soon 'peard to lou natrull enough. Then Captain Heevey cumin, ridin on a mule hitched to a bi( tank on wheels, witn fo«r fellers marchiri abreast jist behind him, with broad-ax0 in thar hands. Then everyone thar wuj giv a quail, that they sea '*hed bin brilet a year and a half ago, and kept on icj ever sin:e," and a silver-tin cup full ol catnip," which we were told to eat ant drink without sayin a wurd to ennybodjj and "he out of the heuseby five o'clock,! or our heads would be chapped off wit! them broad-axes." Them wus the or ders of Capt. Heevey hisselt, as he sot his mule—"fur," says he "thats the wa we do in Canaday.

Ets astonishin. Mistur Editur, ho them new ways hes tuck with the Terr) Hut peeple, and you could hearn the ga? whisperin all over the room, es Cap Heeveys sot thar on that mule, "aint cunnin?" "Wonder now ef he wor show us somethin else?" I hearn or ,yal thar say, "she would ruther hev h( ad ha of a he in house, by that man, than to be alive enn whar else?" So the party broke, and Terry-Hut now knows what a rai Canaday "High-Tee" is. It bea all how peeple kin learn, they only hev a chance. Ci ziar is pretty practicull, but she-sed es went back, she wouldn't hev missed th "High-Tee" for all the quiltins and co shuckins she hed ever seed, licker a fiddles all throwd in. Terry Hut is good place, but what must ft be wh peeple kin afford to live in the raal Ci ad ay itself!

But, Mistur Editur, I must close epistull, and finish up 6ome other t'nii l|sot out to say, in my next Wishin all a Happy New Year, and that may hev "High-Tees" es long es ca grows and quails hatch tharyour.g, 11

I have noticed in your columns of late several interesting locals in regard of a' ball to be given by the Governor's Guards on Monday evening next.

I am-not a party-going man but n\y attention was caused a* explained above, particularly I presume because the GAZETTE is always the leader here in the newspaper line in urging and supporting all new enterprises that are of any advan tage to the city of Terre Haute. Our other papers would do well to pattern after the GAZETTE in this respect.

For this showld the GAZETTE be commended particularly The Guards are composed of a class of wcrthy young men who have worked themselves up under difficulties to a proficiency in drill and appearance that justly makes them the pride ot our city.

I am not a member of the Guards, and know nothing of their financial condition, but suppose the ball in question is for their benefit financially. If such is the case, then every business man and property holder in the city should encourage them by purchasing a ticket. We do not know "how soon we may need such an orgrnization for the protection of proDerty in our midst.

HORTICTLTURAL.

To the Ejitorof the GAZETTE: I desire to correct one error in the report of the exercises at the annual meeting at the Rev. Martyn's. Rev. E. W. Abbey did not read extracts from any paper ridiculing the institution of Mormonism. He read the whole of the prelude to one of Rev. Joseph Cook's lectures in Boston, and the subject of it was the arrant wickedness of Mormonism with its increasing strength, and threatening danger of becoming one of the sis ter states of the union, with all its palliation and incestuous praotices.

a fine silk shawl, which was to be

w.u auu swum un ineyq qgy 01 jflntt^given to his dead wife through Mrs. Stewart. Alasl the poor woman will haye to go cold, as I had to go without my seance, because the medium was 6ick.,

The reasons why these imposters would not give me a seance, are apparent. They had no clew to me, knew not mv name or residence and besides suspected that 11^ meant to c&tch them at their tricks if possible. New, let me class this article with the promised advice. I advise Dr. Pence to leave this nefarious business of roper in for mediums, and adopt that of| sneak-thief or pickpocket which would be as honorable and much more to be admired. I advise Mrs. Stewart to wa*h her hands and put cn clean clothes that those who visit her may not be entirely disgusted. I advUe Mr. Stewart to go to the cornfields ar)d do good honest work witn his brawny hands. I advise Mr. Margan to take his daughter to a Turkish Bath establishment, see that she uses soap and water freely, and then» she may perhaps be admitted te some respectable lunatic or idiot asylum. Finally I advise all good men, woman, strangers and citizens to keep clear of these rascals who cheat mankind, and play with the most sacred feelings and subjects. And woul^ also respectlully suggest to the authorities of Terre Haute hat they proceed to arrest Dr. Pence and his gang, and thus clear the city of a nest of villains.

ie Editor of the Dallv GAZKTTK: S© Terre Haute, Ind., Jan. ist, 1879. ask your kind permission to say a wordst in your columaa under the headings. I came to your beautiful|| ast Monday night for the express" ose of giving a fair and genuine testtrial of spiritualism. I had. much of Mrs. Stewart and? a Morgan and was prepared toe, onders. Departed friends were to, me through these marrellous mediand spirits were to be materialized, se observe how my expectationsv realized. Dr. Pence had written in answer to a letter of mine, stating Tuesday would be a good time for1 spirits to come, "unforseen circumces alone preventing." He thus had?: all hole to creep out of, of which he'. good use. At my first call he inet me that there was to be a public ce that evening—admission, fifty ts and when I requested a private? ting with the celebrated Mrs. Stewhe said two seances in one day would 00 much for her nervous system but it pictures, he said, I could have. IAr then introduced to the medium—a&r ternly, slovenly-looking woman, who ceeded, with aid of her fat, lazy husd, to take pictures. Five of these erable pictures were taken, but it needless to sav that thev re not recognizable, and in fact were ietched specimens of art at the most*^ en,thegocd Dr. said I could go to nee to be given that P.

Miss Morgan attired an old calico dress, which had evidentnever been washed (but in that respect much like its owner) was tied with es and belts and with flour in her d6, which looked white indeed in, nparison to her skin, entered the cab-., t. A half hour was then consumed the execrable vocal efforts of theeinaker and his lusty wife. Finally spirits came.
